Changing the types of variables displayed in the Variable List
You can change the types of variables that are displayed in the Variable List. When you are working in a data set that has a large number of variables, hide variable types that are not relevant. For example, you might want to hide weighting, filter, and source file variables when you are creating tables on the Define tab.
